Preparing the MLC for Front Panel Lockout
To allow access to front panel changes to specific personnel while the front panel is locked,
you can set a user and/or administrator PIN and set which type of PIN, if any, is allowed to
unlock the panel.
Setting up and enabling or disabling PINs
Using the
Advanced Configuration
tab within Extron Global Configurator (GC)
software, you can configure which PIN to enable (which PIN allowed to unlock the front
panel), or disable both PINs so that no one can access the
front panel during front panel lockout (see image at right).
And you can set the four-digit PINs for the administrator and
for users.
NOTE:
Each digit of the PIN must be a number from
1 to 4 because they represent the four MLC front
panel input buttons, which is used as a numeric
keypad. By default, both PINs are set to 1423.
See the
Global Configurator Help
file for the PIN
setup procedure.
Scheduling front panel lockouts
You can set the front panel of the MLC to be automatically locked at certain times and days
by setting up a schedule using the
Schedule
tab within the Global Configurator software
and uploading it to the MLC. The
Global Configurator Help
file includes instructions on how
to set up a scheduled action.
IR Control
IR Learning: Top Panel Receiver
In most cases, Extron has already produced a
driver file for controlling the projector,
display, or source device you plan to use. If
a device driver file is not available, you can
create your own using Extron IR Learner
software, the remote control of the device,
and the IR learning receiver sensor on the
MLC, shown in the image at right. See the
IR Learner Help
file for IR learning
procedures.
This receiver accepts infrared signals of
from 30 kHz to 62 kHz. The IR remote
control must be pointed directly at the
receiver for best results. The diagram
indicates the best distances and angles at
which to hold the remote control.
